Re: How to Install OpenStack ???????????

 

I think these are the 3 best options for an automated OpenStack install:

RDO (Packstack), supports RHEL, CentOS, Fedora.

MAAS/Juju, supports Ubuntu.

Mirantis Fuel, supports RHEL/CentOS for now, they say Ubuntu support is
coming.

Try all 3 if you can. Fuel was just recently open sourced and has a pretty
fancy web GUI.
